I LOVE this!!! Fits right in with my decor. Thanks so much for this great post!!
Love versatile industrial home decor!
My six vintage Coca-Cola crates have served me well for over 30 years, holding my beloved book collection. They go where I go and like me get reconfigured with each move. I've grow somewhat attached to them... vintage pickings of my youth :)

great post! we love old boxes and have been using them as end tables, wall decor and bookshelves for 30 years. oh lord that made me sound so old :D
Great ideas - I use an old coffee crate on wheels for a rolling storage bin, like the magazine rack above. It's very convenient & I love it!
Really great ideas! I love when they're used as wall shelves! So creative!
This makes me want to rush out and get some old crates!
I have one of these soda crates, and it has been hanging in our boys room for years- little toy cars sit on the shelves. Fabulous Post!
